    I hate to break it to you, but ignoring the will of the people has been core tenant of conservatism for at least the passed 100 years.

    Conservative literally means to be less open to changes in government. They used to be the party of status quo, now they’re the party of regression. Neither is a healthy stance for a government, as governments inherently need to respond to changes and provide for the protection and welfare of the population.

      I’m not sure what you are trying to accomplish by using such a wide brush to paint such an inaccurate, broad picture. This really isn’t much better than saying “democrats are communists”.
